It's been a two year investigation spear-headed by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, along with the US Attorneys Office.

While a lot of details are not being released about the case, here's where they gathered some evidence. "Three search warrants executed, one at the police department, one at Mr. Young's home, and one at the home of Steven Fritz," added Sheriff Parsons.

Sheriff Parsons says Mr. Fritz has no association with police and cannot comment on his involvement, but Sheriff Parsons is anticipating more arrests and more charges. "It's a sad day for all of us, he betrayed a trust that we owe to the public," added Sheriff Parsons.

News 5 checked with Town Mayor DR Carter, he didn't want to speak on camera but says the community's safety is top concern and there are still six full-time police officers.

Residents say this arrest is a surprise and it's awful news to hear. "He's supposed to be out here getting them, not selling and distributing them," added Fausnight.

Young is in federal custody without bail. News 5 got a copy of the affidavit from the US Attorney's Office, in it Young is accused of distributing pain pills and possessing a gun while illegally using and dealing drugs.
